Offshore wind power– A solution for energy transition in Vietnam.

The draft National Power Development Plan for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2045 (PDP8) submitted to the Government by the Ministry of Industry and Trade for approval, sets the target to reach about 7GW of offshore wind power by 2030. For a country with great potential for offshore wind power development like Vietnam, this target is not too difficult. Along with the objective of ensuring energy security and sustainable development, offshore wind power also contributes to creating thousands of jobs and gradually forms supporting industries to support wind power development in Viet Nam.

Recently NIRAS has been awarded a multimillion USD contract to conduct an international standard Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) for the 3.5GW La Gan offshore wind farm in the Binh Thuan province of Vietnam. The role of NIRAS is to ensure this offshore wind farm project is developed in the right place, environmental and community impact is minimised, and ultimately that clean, renewable and reliable electricity is delivered to the national grid.

RCEE-NIRAS and its international consultant team partner is conducting a study to carry out the preparatory work for a Multisectorial Green Program, including green credit lines to be granted by AFD to a pool of public banks in Vietnam. This Credit line shall be offered together with a technical assistance program to partner banks, final beneficiaries, and the central bank. Furthermore, depending on the Feasibility study’s result, AFD could eventually offer a whole package (Non sovereign loans – Technical Assistance – Investment grant (to be mobilized from EU)to the beneficiaries (public banks and final beneficiaries) in the sector(s) in need.

Through a project funded by USAID, RCEE-NIRAS supports the Vietnamese government agencies assess reporting and certification needs of individual sectors and evaluate options for developing the institutional set-up, reporting and certification guidance, data systems, and verification bodies that enable companies respond to emerging GHG reporting and labeling requirements. RCEE-NIRAS consulting team will undertake research on international best practices in GHG labeling including legal frameworks, reporting protocols and other tools/methods for carbon accounting and carbon footprint calculation, types of assistance provided to businesses for implementation, guidance and processes for third party verification, data sources and/or benchmarks that can facilitate reporting, and management agencies for supervising and certifying GHG reports and carbon labels.

USAID partners with Vietnam to promote innovative solutions that can address urban energy and environmental challenges. To generate ideas from people and organizations, USAID supports the Innovation Challenge Fund.
Vietnam's economy is in the development stage. The demand for energy will increase leading to the power supply grid as well as the ability to provide primary energy will have to be improved. Alot of our primary energy sources depends on imports which means we lose money for foreign countries. That creates pressure with efficient energy management. Fortunately, the Innovation Challenge Fund supports activities related to energy efficiency and distributed energy sources.
